This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 15th European Workshop on Computer Performance Engineering, EPEW 2018, held in Paris, France, in October 2018. The 17 papers presented together with the abstracts of two invited talks in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 27 submissions. The papers presented at the workshop reflect the diversity of modern performance engineering, with topics ranging from advances in performanceengineering realm, including, dependability and security modeling, performance oriented model verification and testing, hardware and software systems case-studies, applications/extensions of queuing theory and network design
Advanced data management has always been at the core of efficient database and information systems. Recent trends like big data and cloud computing have aggravated the need for sophisticated and flexible data storage and processing solutions. This book provides a comprehensive coverage of the principles of data management developed in the last decades with a focus on data structures and query languages. It treats a wealth of different data models and surveys the foundations of structuring, processing, storing and querying data according these models. Starting off with the topic of database design, it further discusses weaknesses of the relational data model, and then proceeds to convey the b...
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 14th EuropeanWorkshop on Computer Performance Engineering, EPEW 2017, held in Berlin,Germany, in September 2017. The 18 papers presented together with the abstracts of two invited talks in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 30 submissions. The papers presented at the workshop reflect the diversity of modern performanceengineering, with topics ranging from advances in Markov models; advances in quantitative analysis; model checking; and cyber-physical systems to performance, energy and security.
people volunteer their time and energy and work in a dedicated fashion to pull everything together each year, including our very supportive Steering Comm- tee members led by Sukumar Ghosh. However, the success of ICDCN is mainly due to the hard work of all those people who submit papers and/or attend the conference. We thank you all. January 2009 Prasad Jayanti Andrew T. Campbell Message from the Technical Program Chairs Welcome to the proceedings of the 10thInternationalConferenceon Distributed Computing and Networking (ICDCN) 2009.

This volume contains the papers presented at the 7th International Symposium on Automated Technologyfor Veri?cation and Analysis held during October 13- 16 in Macao SAR, China. The primary objective of the ATVA conferences - mains the same: to exchangeand promote the latest advances of state-of-the-art researchon theoretical and practical aspects of automated analysis, veri?cation, and synthesis. Among 74 research papers and 10 tool papers submitted to ATVA 2009, the Program Committee accepted 23 as regular papers and 3 as tool papers. In all, 33 experts from 17 countries worked hard to make sure that every submission received a rigorous and fair evaluation. In addition, the program included...
This book constitutes the proceedings of the 4th International Conference on Social Informatics, SocInfo 2012, held in Lausanne, Switzerland, in December 2012. The 21 full papers, 18 short papers included in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 61 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections named: social choice mechanisms in the e-society,computational models of social phenomena, social simulation, web mining and its social interpretations, algorithms and protocols inspired by human societies, socio-economic systems and applications, trust, privacy, risk and security in social contexts.
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 25th International Conference on Concurrency Theory, CONCUR 2014, held in Rome, Italy in September 2014. The 35 revised full papers presented together with 5 invited talks were carefully reviewed and selected from 124 submissions. The focus of the conference is on the following topics: process calculi, model checking and abstraction, synthesis, quantitative models, automata and multithreading, complexity, process calculi and types, categories, graphs and quantum systems, automata and time, and games.
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 9th International Conference on Integrated Formal Methods, IFM 2012, held Pisa, Italy, in June 2012. The 20 revised full papers presented together with 2 invited papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 59 submissions. The papers cover the spectrum of integrated formal methods, ranging from formal and semiformal notations, semantics, proof frameworks, refinement, verification, timed systems, as well as tools and case studies.
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed proceedings of the 24th International Conference on Concurrency Theory, CONCUR 2013, held in Buenos Aires, Argentina, August 27-30, 2013. The 34 revised full papers presented together with 4 invited talks were carefully reviewed and selected from 115 submissions. The papers are organized in topics such as process semantics and modal transition systems, VAS and pushdown systems, Pi calculus and interaction nets, linearizability and verification of concurrent programs, verification of infinite models, model measure and reversibility, stochastic models, message-based interaction processes, principles of automatic verification, and games and control synthesis.
International Federation for Information Processing The IFIP series publishes state-of-the-art results in the sciences and technologies of information and communication. The scope of the series includes: foundations of computer science; software theory and practice; education; computer applications in technology; communication systems; systems modeling and optimization; information systems; computers and society; computer systems technology; security and protection in information processing systems; artificial intelligence; and human-computer interaction. Proceedings and post-proceedings of refereed international conferences in computer science and interdisciplinary fields are featured. These results often precede journal publication and represent the most current research. The principal aim of the IFIP series is to encourage education and the dissemination and exchange of information about all aspects of computing.
